22 Week Pregnancy Update

Let me tell you, it is taking all of my remaining self-confidence to post these pictures.

I just keep reminding myself it's all baby... right?

How far along: 22 weeks!

Baby is the size of: A pomegranate. Which I think is kind of a random comparison...

Maternity Clothes?: Yes! And I think everyone should wear maternity pants. They are pretty much the most comfortable things I have ever worn. ever.

Stretch Marks: Still No! Maybe I'll luck out...?

Sleep: It's actually a bit better than it was. Still not at it's pre-pregnancy greatness, but better.

Best moment this week: Taking a day and a half trip down to AZ to watch my brother perform at the State Marching Band competition. It was so fun to surprise everyone. It was definitely a fast trip, which is why I didn't bother telling anyone but family, because I was there for state, and that's what we did. It was a blast! And Mesa High took 2nd with one amazing show. Go Jackrabbits!

Movement: Yes! It's a lot more frequent now that I notice the movement and it's fun. Brad was even able to feel her the other night!

Cravings: The other day, I really wanted frozen pizza and brownies. Weird, right? I know. But they were delicious in all their unhealthy greatness! I figure I stay healthy most of the time, so I could splurge for a meal, yes? I added a bit of green salad...

Anything make you sick/queasy?: Still fried food. Actually, that might not be true. I haven't tried recently. But the idea alone puts my stomach into fits.

Have you started to show yet?: Yes! I'm suddenly gigantic... One day I walked into work and one of the boys said "Woah! You are suddenly pregnant!" So there's that. You can even tell from the front now.

Gender: It's a girl!!!!! If you missed that announcement, check it out here.

Happy or Moody?: Still like before. Mostly happy, but every now and again, I am just strangely sad/mad/upset with no real reason. I just need a quick cry and then I'm usually okay.

Looking Forward To: Thanksgiving! We are headed to Idaho and are so excited to see family there, relax, eat way too much, and even make a few things for baby!! SO excited!!
